On March 31, 2015, the Company purchased land held for development in the Town Center of Virginia Beach, Virginia for $1.2 million.

Operating Property Acquisitions

In connection with operating property acquisitions, the Company identifies and recognizes all assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The purchase price allocations to tangible assets, such as land, site improvements and buildings and improvements are presented within income producing property in the condensed consolidated balance sheet and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Acquired lease intangibles are presented within other assets and liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet and amortized over their respective lease terms. The Company expenses all costs incurred related to operating property acquisitions. The Company values land based on a market approach, looking to recent sales of similar properties, adjusting for differences due to location, the state of entitlement as well as the shape and size of the parcel. Improvements to land are valued using a replacement cost approach. The approach applies industry standard replacement costs adjusted for geographic specific considerations and reduced by estimated depreciation. The value of buildings acquired is estimated using the replacement cost approach, assuming the buildings were vacant at acquisition. The replacement cost approach considers the composition of the structures acquired, adjusted for an estimate of depreciation. The estimate of depreciation is made considering industry standard information and depreciation curves for the identified asset classes. The value of acquired lease intangibles considers the estimated cost of leasing the properties as if the acquired buildings were vacant, as well as the value of the current leases relative to market-rate leases. The in-place lease value is determined using an estimated total lease-up time and lost rental revenues during such time. The value of current leases relative to market-rate leases is based on market rents obtained for market comparables. Given the significance of unobservable inputs used in the valuation of acquired real estate assets, the Company classifies them as Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy.

On April 8, 2015, the Company completed the acquisitions of Stone House Square in Hagerstown, Maryland and Perry Hall Marketplace in Perry Hall, Maryland. In exchange for both properties, the Company paid $35.4 million of cash and issued 415,500 shares of common stock. The acquisition date fair value of the total consideration transferred in exchange for Stone House Square and Perry Hall Marketplace was $39.8 million.

On July 1, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of Socastee Commons, a 57,000 square foot retail center in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

On July 10, 2015, the Company acquired Columbus Village, a 65,000 square foot retail center in Virginia Beach, Virginia.

Subject to the occurrence of certain events, the Class B Units and Class C Units will not earn or accrue distributions until July 10, 2017 and January 10, 2018, respectively, at which time each may be redeemed in exchange for cash equal to the market price of shares of the Company’s common stock or, at the Company’s option and sole discretion, shares of the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis. The estimated fair value of the Class B Units and Class C Units includes a discount for their lack of marketability and distributions until July 10, 2017 and January 10, 2017, respectively. The acquisition date fair value of the total consideration transferred in exchange for Columbus Village was $19.2 million.

On September 1, 2015, the Company acquired Providence Plaza in Charlotte, North Carolina for $26.2 million of cash.

Point Street Apartments

On October 15, 2015, the Company agreed to invest up to $23.0 million in the Point Street Apartments project in the Harbor Point area of Baltimore, Maryland. Point Street Apartments is an estimated $93.0 million development project with plans for a 17-story building comprising 289 residential units and 18,000 square feet of street-level retail space. Beatty Development Group (“BDG”) is the developer of the project and has engaged the Company to serve as construction general contractor. Point Street Apartments is scheduled to open in 2017; however, management can provide no assurances that Point Street Apartments will open on the anticipated timeline.

BDG is responsible for securing a senior construction loan of up to $70.0 million to fund the development and construction of Point Street Apartments. The Company has agreed to guarantee up to $25.0 million of the senior construction loan in exchange for the option to purchase up to an 88% controlling interest in Point Street Apartments upon completion of the project as follows: (i) an option to purchase a 79% indirect interest in Point Street Apartments for $27.3 million, exercisable within one year from the project’s completion (the “First Option”) and (ii) provided that the Company has exercised the First Option, an option to purchase an additional 9% indirect interest in Point Street Apartments for $3.1 million, exercisable within 27 months from the project’s completion (the “Second Option”).

The Company’s investment in the Point Street Apartments project is in the form of a loan under which BDG may borrow up to $23.0 million (the “BDG loan”). Interest on the BDG loan accrues at 8.0% per annum and matures on the earlier of: (i) November 1, 2018, which may be extended by BDG under two one-year extension options, (ii) the maturity date or earlier termination of the senior construction loan or (iii) the date the Company exercises the Second Option as described further below.

In the event the Company exercises the First Option, BDG is required to simultaneously pay down the senior construction loan by $7.4 million and the BDG loan by $19.9 million, at which time the interest rate on the BDG loan will automatically be reduced to the interest rate on the senior construction loan plus 200 basis points. In the event the Company exercises the Second Option, BDG is required to simultaneously repay any remaining amounts outstanding under the BDG loan, with any excess proceeds received from the exercise of the Second Option applied against the senior construction loan. In the event the Company does not exercise either the First Option or the Second Option, the interest rate on the BDG loan will automatically be reduced to the interest rate on the senior construction loan for the remaining term of the BDG loan. In the event BDG is unable to secure a senior construction loan on or before June 30, 2016, the interest rate on the BDG loan will be reduced to one-month LIBOR plus 200 basis points.

As of the date of this report, the Company had funded $6.1 million under the BDG loan.
